Lancet study: "..the safest level of (alcohol) drinking is none."

[lawrenceRaider]

My wife and I recently cut out alcohol consumption, entirely in her case, and nearly entirely in mine. I went out for beers with a friend once, and had a friend bring me back beers from England that I've nursed on here and there. Total drinks per week for me is definitely less than one. Biggest bonus is weight loss for us both, hers I'm not sure of, but I dropped 7 lbs without doing anything else differently.

I'm a beer hoarder, so have a bunch of pretty fantastic brews in my beer cellar, and I plan to slowly consume those. Also have some nice bourbons that I need to decide what to do with, and a couple expensive bottles of wine that we'll probably eventually drink. I've pretty well decided though that I will not be purchasing more moving forward. I feel a hell of a lot better in general and am moving weight at the gym that I either haven't since I was much younger, or just haven't at all (PR territory).
